Book Reviews of Wobegon Boy
Book Review: ....and all the children are above average
Summary: 4 Stars
I'm an old Keillor fan - way back to my college days when he had a morning radio show on MPR and performed at the U of M St. Paul Student Center - crowds numbering 30-40. The characters are all so familiar and as the wife of a Lutheran Minnesotan, I was often doubled over with laughter reading this book. My family's favorite line: "I want to die peacefully in my sleep like Grandpa - not screaming in terror like the passengers in his car." I agree with some previous reviewer - this isn't a novel. Why didn't Keillor's editors insist this be a book of vignettes or essays? Those forms would have given the material more impact.
